Florence Pugh's Black Widow Is Rumored To Be The New Leader Of Marvel Studios' ‘Thunderbolts.'
Yelena Belova is expected to be the leader of the antihero team in the upcoming Thunderbolts movie, as Justin Kroll from Deadline hinted in a recent appearance on The Town. “[Florence Pugh] has got the Marvel superhero that's already got a spin-off,” said Kroll. “Upcoming for her, actually, on that character is this Thunderbolts film, which is basically Marvel's Suicide Squad. Hopefully, it has better results. But the concept is it'd be her leading the team of like Wyatt Russell's John Walker, Daniel Bruhl's Zemo, those antiheroes that aren't exactly good but aren't exactly bad. So there's that. And people seem to like the Yelena character.”
